Plugin Updates 47~

Today’s update is an update which leaves me to make an unfortunate decision to cut off the ‘Turn Structure’ parameter from both the ATB and CTB. For those wondering, the ‘Turn Structure’ parameter allowed you to change the ATB/CTB from a Tick-Based battle system to a Turn-Based battle system. While this does work for the most part, it’s not what an ATB/CTB battle system is supposed to do. And with that combination, I’d then have to factor in native turn-based, native and current tick-based, native-changed tick-based into turn-based, tick-based that was functioning with a turn-based state turn system, and turn-based that was functioning with a tick-based origin that uses turn-based state counters on a tick-based setting. This causes confusion for users who don’t really understand how a tick-based system works, and suddenly changing it over to a turn-based system while maintaining tick-based system traits can end up becoming a huge mess in understanding. So, for that reason alone, the ‘Turn Structure’ parameter is getting sacked for a more standard setting.

Plugin Updates 46~

Whew, going to push the updates early today. Apparently, the update for the Action Sequence Pack 3 last night broke the panning aspect of the battle camera with me attempting to use the updated changes to the function. So instead, I reverted it back to the old method but just gave it a different name as to not overwrite anything. Action Sequence Pack 3 should be working the same as before. 🙂

For the scripters out there who like to make changes or write plugins around my stuff, the Status Menu Core is now a Window_Selectable instead of a Window_Base. Have fun! 😀

Plugin Previews & Voting – Round 7

Yanfly Engine Plugins is a plugin library made for RPG Maker MV, a wonderful piece of software to help you make that role playing game of your dreams. You can find out more about RPG Maker MV here.

You can make your vote here!

I’ve added a CAPTCHA requirement to the polls because I’ve been aware and have been alerted by multiple users that there’s potential abuse going on due to the numbers I’m getting. However, I’m going to let the results main as is since there was no telling how many of the votes were abused. I’m aware that CAPTCHA doesn’t prevent abuse, but it should at least slow the abuse down. Still, I insist that we all vote fairly here. After all, is this not a nice community of friends working together to create their dream RPG’s?

Plugin Updates 44~

We have a couple of bugfixes today! Though, one of them happens to be an “unfix”. It appears that MV 1.0.1 has added one of my bugfixes to the source code and having a duplicate fix of it within my Core Engine plugin is a bit excessive so the Core Engine has been updated to remove that fix. The Battle Engine Core has also been updated regarding states. Forced Actions now no longer reduce the Action Start and Action End state turns. However, it seems that there was another bug that needed fixing, and this was actually a bug that was found within MV itself.

Apparently, if you have states set to Turn End, they would normally end at the end of the turn as expected. No problems with that. However, if at the end of the turn, you use a Force Action event, this would actually kick the turn battle into gear again and the Turn End would occur again. This means that for each turn that ends with a forced action, states would go down 2 turns as opposed to 1 turn. This problem is now fixed for the Battle Engine Core. However, I may make a separate fix for it in the Core Engine for those who don’t plan on using the Battle Engine Core.

The CTB plugin has been updated to provide some better compatibility with other plugins. I’ve been alerts that there’s been lockups with the CTB and it was due to other plugins being used. Now, some failsafes have been added to prevent these lockups. In addition to that, a new parameter has been added to change the icon sizes of the turn order. You can now have them bigger or smaller (than they already are).

Those using the Learn Skill System and the Class Change Core, I do urge that you update the Learn Skill System plugin as an equipment duplication bug has been found for non-independent items. This has been fixed!

YEP.38 – Battle System – Charge Turn Battle

Yanfly Engine Plugins is a plugin library made for RPG Maker MV, a wonderful piece of software to help you make that role playing game of your dreams. You can find out more about RPG Maker MV here.

You can grab the plugin here:

English Mirror

This plugin requires Battle Engine Core. The fabled Battle System – CTB! Battle participants are placed in a visible turn order based on their agility and speed. When it becomes their turn, they input an action and execute it immediately, then proceed back in line. The CTB system focuses heavily on turn manipulation to change the strategic flow of battle.

If you want to grab some nice icons for CTB to use, I highly recommend getting them from this thread found on RPG Maker Web! 😀

SUPPORT FOR CTB HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED BY YANFLY. Reasons are explained in this post. You can continue using it, but do not expect everything to work with it.

Plugin Updates 40~

Hi all! It’s time for another batch of plugin updates! There were two game-breaking bugs that were fixed for Subclass and Job Points so make sure you pick those up! The ATB plugins involve both a mechanical and visual update. The mechanical update is that previously, while a unit is charging, say, a magical spell, and the user gets inflicted with Silence, the spell would still go through since it already began casting. This is now changed to check if a skill is usable prior to casting before deciding it will cast. If not, the action “fizzles” out and the actor loses its turn. The visual update for the ATB Gauge is that now, the opacity of the gauge is capped by the opacity of the battler. This means if you’re using some action sequences to change a battler transparent, the gauge will turn transparent, too.

Have fun all!

Yanfly Engine Plugins is a plugin library made for RPG Maker MV, a wonderful piece of software to help you make that role playing game of your dreams. You can find out more about RPG Maker MV here.

You can grab the plugin here:

English Mirror

A feature that was removed from RPG Maker 2000 and RPG Maker 2003 was the Stop Event Movement event. This event prevented events from automatically moving by themselves, so they don’t intrude on cutscenes, catch up to the player during messages, etc.

This plugin recreates that feature in the form of a plugin command for you to use with RPG Maker MV!
